Overview
This classic Bermudian ketch is a distinguished classic yacht available for Mediterranean charter. Built by White Brothers in 1928 in Lloyd’s class to a Fred Shepherd design, she combines elegant lines, speed, seaworthiness and offshore capability.
Built in teak on oak frames, she has been carefully maintained and restored. Long-term ownership has preserved her original character while keeping her comfortable for modern cruising.
Her efficient Bermudian ketch rig suits both Mediterranean cruising and classic regattas. At 27 metres, she balances presence, performance and manageable size, with a traditional interior and graceful exterior lines.
She is a true yachtsman’s yacht: a rare piece of maritime heritage, carefully preserved for 50 years while retaining the sailing qualities and spirit of Fred Shepherd’s designs.
